Hi everyone, we've had a busy week and the sort of good news is that my blood sugar levels have dropped..but only because I have been put back onto the tablet I dropped when I went onto the double dose of the new one - which seems a bit of a backward step - it will be reviewed again in a few weeks!
My son's 40th went well..eventually, and I am getting good night's sleep once more!
I thought you might like to see where my son and DIL have bought a Manoir in the Perigord region...
There are lots of outbuildings - Elizabeth would love to get in here I think.
More outbuildings.....
..a well...
Our bedroom was the one above our car.
The view from our bedroom window looked like an old painting...
There is a lot of land around the property too.
It really is in a lovely spot, it's a pity that my son and DIL have to spend most of their time there working.
The building down the hill is theirs too
We plan to go and help out this year - looking forward to it!
My TSFT pic this time is from a place we stopped at on the way back up to Northern France.
We had a pasta dish and our drink as usual was water - the yellow is hubby's napkin behind the jug.
We are joining the T gang for T stands For Tuesday over at Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog 'The Altered Book Lover.
Off now for a rest and little bit of TV watching.
Thanks for looking, Chris
What an amazing place to live! I don't envy them all the work, but it will be worth it.
ReplyDeleteWow, I bet they love living there, it's such a beautiful place 😊. Wishing you a very happy T Day! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteWow. That looks like it will be an amazing place once they finish it up. I love everything they found on the property. That is such a great find. It is amazing how people leave things behind. And what a view too. I hope you had a great T day, and good news even if they put you back on your old meds. Better to be back on the one the works. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteOh I enjoyed this getaway very much! You were in an old painting
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful spot! They have their work cut out for them. I'm sure they'll appreciate you coming to help out when you can. :)
ReplyDeleteI was amazed at all the beauty of that incredible place your son and DIL bought. I thought of Iris when I saw all those wires coming out of the house and property. She goes on and on about underground wires. If only that were the case everywhere. Some of those wires looked pretty stretched. Yes, that and the rusty pieces in the outbuilding (as well as all that lumber) were what really caught my eye. Some people call it junk. I call it treasures. And potential art and assemblages.
ReplyDeleteAh, pasta is always good and of course, there is nothing better when out than water. Thanks for sharing your son's incredible new home and your meal and water with us for T this Tuesday, dear Chris.
Good to read that you are getting your medications sorted Chris .
ReplyDeleteThe photos of your son and DIL's new home look super, a lot of work but I'm sure it will be an amazing home. It put me in mind of the series that is on our TV Chateau DIY

That property looks well-situated. I'm sure the work will go quickly. I look forward to seeing more pictures.
ReplyDeleteHappy T Day
Lovely place, happy T Day! Valerie
ReplyDeleteFairy tale place! Wow. I know you are happy for them.
ReplyDeleteAll the work stresses me just thinking about it, but after they are done....a dreamy place.
Love the T-day picture too. Fun share, Chris. Happy T-day a bit late. Hugz
How beautiful, something that dreams are made of, how exciting for them, and for you when you get to visit. Still looking after sick kitties, so I'm very late to the party. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
